REPORT. 


Office  of  State  Auditor  South  Carolina, 
Columbia,  December  3,  1864. 
The  Honorable  the  Senate  and  House  of  Representatives  : 

The  General  Assembly,  by  joint  resolutions  passed  in  January,  18G3, 
directed  that  all  claims  for  slaves  lost  in  the  public  service,  or  '•  whose 
death  or  loss  has  been  occasioned  by  reason  of  said  service,"  should  be 
presented  to  and  audited  in  this  office.  And  the  Auditor  was  authorized 
to  call  for  any  additional  proof  that  he  might  deem  necessary  to  establish 
the  said  claims,  and  instructed  "  to  report  to  the  next  session  of  the  Leg- 
islature each  claim  allowed,  with  the  evidence  on  which  his  judgment  is 
based." 

I  have  the  honor  to  submit,  in  connection  with  this  report,  an  Abstract 
of  all  the  claims  of  this  character  which  have  been  presented  to  this  of- 
fice, under  the  resolutions  above  referred  to,  since  the  last  regular  session 
of  the  Legislature.  The  whole  number  of  claims  so  presented  is  261, 
showing  a  loss  of  267  slaves,  valued  at  3570,250.  Of  these  claims  I  have 
allowed  218,  amounting  to  §452,150  ;  and  suspended  for  defects  in  proof 
44,  amounting  to  §118,100.  A  separate  report  upon  each  of  the  claims 
allowed,  together  "with  the  evidence  on  which  my  judgment  has  been 
based,"  is  also  herewith  presented.  The  suspended  claims,  with  my  rea- 
sons endorsed  thereon  for  requiring  ndditional  proof,  are  also  submitted. 

In  all  cases  I  have  required,  as  the  condition  of  a  final  audit, -that  the 
facts  of  ownership ;  impressment  by  authority  of  the  State ;  the  death  or 
loss  of  the  blave  while  in  the  public  service,  or  by  reason  of  the  said  ser- 
vice; and  the  value  of  the  slave  at  the  time  of  impressment,  should  be 
clearly  established  by  proof  upon  oath.  In  fixing  the  amount  of  compen- 
sation to  be  allowed,  I  have  been  exclusively  controlled  by  the  appraise- 
ments made  under  the  9th  section  of  the  Act  of  December,  1862,  "  to 
organize  and  supply  negro  labor  for  coast  defence,"  in  all  cases  in  which 
the  said  appraisenlents  have  been  before  mc.  In  cases  where  no  cvidcuce 
has  been  furnished  by  the  State  Agent,  or  by  others,  of  such  appraise- 
ments having  been  made,  I  have  adopted  the  valuation  of  sworn  di.sintor- 


ested  appraisers,  appointed  under  the  regulations  of  tliis  office,  which  I  had 
the  hoaor  to  submit,  in  connection  with  this  subject,  in  my  first  annual  re- 
port. 

*By  reference  to  the  Abstract,  it  will  be  seen  that  the  valuations  assessed 
by  the  sworn  appraisers  are  much  higher,  in  a  large  majority  of  cases, 
than  that  fixed  by  the  appraisers  under  the  Act.  This  difference  arises 
mainly  from  the  fact  that  the  latter  assessments  are  made  in  Charleston, 
while  the  former  are  made  in  the  respective  neighborhoods  of  the  owners. 
At  the  last  session  of  the  Legislature,  I  had  the  honor  of  calling  attention 
to  the  great  inequality  which  resulted  from  the  adoption  of  the  appraise- 
ments under  the  Act,  in  all  cases,  where  they  had  been  made.  I  um  still 
impressed  with  the  view,  that  appraisements  conducted  under  circum-. 
stances  which  practically  deny  to  owaers  the  privilege  of  appointing  one 
cf  the  appraisers,  or  of  being  present  at  the  valuation  of  their  slaves,  are 
not  in  accordance  with  the  spirit  of  the  Act,  and  is  clearly  a  departure 
from  the  establibhed  rule  for  the  valuation  of  private  property  taken  for 
the  public  use.  The  Act,  however,  only  provides  that  the  appraisements 
shall  be  made  "before  the  slaves  shall  be  employed  in  lab.or  by  the  Con- 
federate authorities,"  and  declares  that  such  appraisement  "  shall  be  con- 
clusive of  the  value  of  the  slaves"  so  appraised.  The  valuations  in 
Charleston  arc  a  literal  compliance  with  the  requirement-  that  they  be 
made  "  before  the  slaves  shall  be  tmploijed  in  lalior^^  and  I  have  therefoi'e 
not  felt  authorized  to  exercise  any  discretion  in  cases  where  such  valua- 
tions were  before  me. 

In  my  general  report^  transmitted  through  the  Governor  to  the  Legisla- 
ture at  the  present  session,  some  facts  are  stated  in  respect  to  the  impress- 
ment of  slaves  by  the  military  authorities  of  the  Confederate  States  which 
I  consider  worthy  of  grave  consideration.  These  impressments  are  clearly 
in  violation  not  only  of  the  law  of  this  State  but  of  the  Confederate  States, 
aud  are  continually  made  when  no  justification  of  military  necessity  can 
be  pleaded  in  their  defence.  The  law  of  the  State  amply  provides  for  any 
amount  of  labor  being  furnished  under  any  emergency  that  may  arise. 
Nearly  all  the  inequality  and  embarrassment  which  have  attended  the  ad- 
justment of  claims  in  this  office  for  compensation  for  slaves  lost  while  em- 
ployed on  the  military  fortifications  in  the  State,  have  grown  out  of  these 
irregular  impressments.  The  State  properly  recognizes  its  obligations  to  make 
such  compensation  when  the  loss  has  resulted  irom  her  act.  But  when  the 
authority  of  the  State  has  not  been  exercised  in  procuring  the  labor  required, 
the  ob'igation  upon  her  to  make  compensation  in  case  of.  loss  does  not  ex- 
ist.    If  the  present  system  is  continued,  I  respectfully  recommend  that 


the  law  be  so  amended  as  to  declare  that  no  impvcssmeuts,  of  slave  labor  for 
military  purpo:5es  shall  be  mide  ia  South  Oaroliaa,  except  as  provided  for 
under  the  law  of  the  Sfate,  or  as  the  same  may  be  sauetioued  by  the  Gov- 
ernor, and  declared  valid  by  his  proclamation.  And  that  in  all  such  eases 
the  impressments  shall  be  made  in  accordance  with  the  laws  of  the  State, 
and  by  her  own  officers.  In  August,  1863,  a  public  call  was  made  upoa 
the  citizens  of  the  State  by  the  Courcderate  General  commanding  this 
Departnieijt,  for  voluntary  slave  labor  to  meet  the  emergency  which  then 
threareocd  the  safety  of  Charleston.  This  call  was  sanctioned  by  the 
proclamation  of  the  Governor,  dated  the  27th  of  that  month,  which  is- 
herewith  submitted.  The  call  was  generally  responded  to,  but  no  appraise- 
ment was  made  of  the  slaves  sent  down,  ;is  required  by  the  Act  of  De- 
cember, 1862.  In  all  cases  where  claims  have  been  presented  for  ihe  loss 
of  slaves  thus  furnished,  I  have  considered  the  act  of  the  GuvcrnuB  as 
binding  upon  the  State,  and  in  the  absence  of  a  i^egular  appraisement  un- 
der the  Act,  have  adopted  that  made  by  sworn  appraisers  appointed  by  the 
owners  from  their  respective  neighborhood.^^. 

Two  cbutns  h'ave  been  presented  for  compensation  for  injuries  to  slaves 
who  were  wounded  while  employed  on  the  military  works,  but  where  death 
has  not  rosulred.  Under  the  resoluftons  referring  to  this  pflice  all  claims 
for  slaves  "who  have  die4  from* di.seases  contracted  in  said  service,  and 
whose  death  or  loss  has  been  occasioned  by  rea.son  of  said  service,"  I  have 
not  felt  authorised  to  consider  these  claims,  and  they  are  submitted,  with 
the  evidence  adduced  in  their  support,  without  any  judgment  on  my  part. 
Thoy  are  designated  by  the  numbers  249  and  365. 

Several  of  the  claims  "suspended"  are  defective  in  the  proof  as  to  the 
death  of  the  slaves.  This  proof  owners  find  much  difficulty  in  obtaining. 
To  relieve  as  far  as  possible  this  difficulty,  an  arrangement  was  made  by 
which  it  was  hoped  that  all  deaths  would  be  reported  monthly  to  this  office 
by  the  Confederate  Surgeons  having  charge  of  negro  hospitals  and  camps 
on  the  coast.  Bat  there  is  no  authority  ia  this  office  to  enforce  this  reg- 
ulation, and  the  returns  are  very  partial,  and  defective.  If  the  present 
system  i:  continued,  I  recommend  that  it  be  ma.de  the  duty  of  the  Stttte 
Agent  of  slave  labor  to  apply  for  certiiicates  of  the  death  of  slaves  to  the 
said  hospital  and  camp  Surgeons,  and  to  transmit  them,  when  obtained,  to 
this  office,  for  the  use  of  owners  in  establishing  their  claims. 

In  the  event  of  the  claims  now  reported  as  allowed,  or  any  of  them, 
being  passed  for  payment. by  the  Legislature,  it  is  respectfully  suggested 
that  the  papers  a*ppertaioing  thereto  be  returned  to  this  office  for  record, 
in  anticipation  of  the  rctcniioa  of  the  originals  by  the  Confederate  Gov- 


6 

eminent,  upon  their  presentation  to  and  allowance  by  the  said  Government. 
And  that  all  payments  advanced  by  the  State  upon  the  said  claims  be  made, 
as  heretofore,  on  the  warrant  of  the  Auditor  drawn  upon  the  Treasury,  so' 
as  to  insure  duplicate  vouchers  of  such  payments,  severally,  being  filed  in 
this  office,  for  the  same  purpose. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

JAMES  TUPPER, 
Auditor  of  South   Carolina.
